Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubuntuone-client

My Dell laptop XPS M1210 will randomly drop off the wireless network
(approximately every hour) and refuse to reconnect even though the SSID
is still listed in the Network Manager list.

After a period of time, it will decide to reconnect and continue doing
this. It will do this even if I am located next to the router.

I've attached messages from syslog showing a successful connection and
also messages around the times when it does not connect even though the
SSID is listed.

The same laptop also runs Windows Vista (for work) and does not drop out
at all.

Rebooting sometimes enables the reconnection, and sometimes disabling
and reenabling wirelesss networking will work.

Normally, the NM icon shows a green lower ball, then the upper ball
turns green, then connection message appears. When NM is refusing to
connect, only the lower ball turns green and the upper ball never turns
green. Often the wireless network key is requested, but entering it
makes no difference - connection still fails.

If I transfer files from my laptop to my Ubuntu 9.10 Dell desktop
server, the copy will stop after only 1-2 Mb and the laptop will drop
off the wireless network as above. I can only copy files by using a USB
flash key.

Thanks for any help,
Trevor
